Stellar Dawn Wiki:Administrator requests

Welcome to the Stellar Dawn Administrator Request page. This page is here to offer a central location for those who are participating with the development of this wiki to make general requests for actions that require the special "sysop" access.

Bot requests. While Macros or bots are against the rules in the game itself, on this wiki editors are permitted in some cases to automate tedious and boring tasks. This should be done according to the Stellar Dawn Wiki:Bots policy guidelines, and if it becomes controversial (or you think it may be controversial).

Protecting/unprotecting pages. Highly visible pages or content that may have links from outside websites are encouraged to have some level of protection. This can also include a request for administrators to try and calm down an edit war. This should be done according to the Stellar Dawn Wiki:Protection policy.

Moving/renaming protected pages. Due to vandals mis-use of the page move tool, some pages are protected from being renamed except by an administrator. If you can make a compelling case for a page move, or consensus has been reached on the respective discussion page related to the page you think needs to be renamed, formal requests for the page move can happen here. New contributors to this wiki or "anonymous" users wishing to rename a page that don't have the page move option available to them yet are also welcome to make such requests on this page.

Minor edits to protected pages. This is mostly on protected templates that can have a substantial impact on the whole wiki if they are changed, so caution is urged when they are modified.

Announcements that are intended to be across the whole wiki. This appears on MediaWiki:Sitenotice, and should be something that would be of interest to the whole community.

Importing pages from another wiki. While seldom used for content on this wiki, this is an option that is available for bringing in content from another Wikia wiki and preserving its edit history... but requires administrator rights in order to accomplish this task. This may involve some special actions on the part of Wikia Central to open this option between two MediaWiki projects, so be patient if you wish to make this sort of request. MediaWiki importing tools can be sometimes buggy, so be gentle on volunteer administrators doing this task.

General questions to the administrators of this wiki. You might get a faster reply by posting on the Yew Grove; however, the administrators here will try to help you to the best of their abilities.
